All of the previous 'Extra' software packages try to remove the users own selection for a home page, and replace it with their own.

This is not only unprofessional but it displays contempt for the user/customer. Clearly Extra do not understand how to develop software and release it in a manner that respects the settings and choices made by the user.

For this reason alone - I would never purchase ANY Extra software products.

Wake up Extra - I'd be surprised if ANY user found your home page to be more important or useful to what they had chosen for themselves. If they preferred to have no home page, you aren't doing them any favors by shoving yours down their throat.

Sure it can be easy to set the home page back - But it only takes 5 minutes and a broom to clean up a doggie gift on your front door step. Doesn't make you feel any better about it.

I will not install this software - not only because of your crap behaviour changing user settings that are unrelated to the function of your almost average software. I'm staying away from Extra software, because to be completely honest - I find that every one of your programs are barely mediocre at best (certainly not worth bookmarking your site, but to be my home page - not even slightly funny).

If it is someone with a marketing degree in your company who is telling you that overwriting a users chosen home page with the Extra home page is a great idea and will make users want to come back to your home page - they are dreaming. Fire them and let the marketing guru go and stuff up someone elses company.

Do you want to know how normal companies who respect their users do it? Under the Help menu - add a link to 'Visit the Extra Web Site'.

What appears to be a complete solution for converting, appears to have no close program option. Instead I had to use the task manager to close it.

Hi,
Downloaded and installed on 32 bit XP pro sp3. I have to say that I totally agree with the comments by Bubby #2.

During installation it displays a window stating the additionl tasks to be performed during setup. Here's a screen shot.

I had decided to only install a desktop icon.
There was no End User Licence agreement which stated that other changes were to be made, nor was there any further indication that other personalsettings would be edited, so why Extra has my google.com homepage changed to dvdcopyrip.com ?? see this screen shot

If my window cleaner said to me 'Andy, finished your windows mate and by the way, painted your front door purple' I would not be amused, so why have you taken it upon yourselves to change something that you have no right to do, you didn't even ask first.

Not testing this abomination, it will be deleted from my PC the minute I finish writing this.
